With reference to figure 5, show according to one or more embodiments, the method for the current location of wireless device is determined in the position with dead reckoning based on detecting in the past, and the method represents by numeral 110 generally.According to one or more embodiments, use the software code in the microcontroller 30,60,80 that is included in communication tool system 10 to implement the method.
In operation 112, communication tool system 10 determines whether the communication between wireless device and vehicle node 14,16 is established.Repeat 112 until communication be established.In operation 114, each node 14,16 receives from wireless device 12 information that comprises acceleration/accel and gyro data.Each node 14,16 produces the message of the information of the data, acceleration information and the gyro data that comprise the transmission time of eating dishes without rice or wine of indicating wireless signal 58 subsequently.In operation 116, dominant base 14 determines that the whole vehicle nodes that whether have been included himself from the data of wireless device 12 receive.If operation 116 judge whether fixed, the part communication disruption between instruction wireless device 12 and node 14,16, communication tool system 10 returns to operation 112 subsequently.
If be sure (that is, all nodes 14,16 receive radio equipment data) in operation 116 judgement, communication tool system 10 advances to operation 118 so, and in the vehicle space location of wireless devices 12.Location of wireless devices 12 comprises use TOF and trilateration calculating distance (D1, D2, D3) and the residing region 20 of definite wireless device 12, and subsequently based on distance and area information, calculates first final position of wireless device 12, such as initial position (D i).
In operation 120, communication tool system 10 determines that all nodes that whether are included himself from the data of wireless device 12 receive again.If the judgement in operation 120 is sure (all nodes 14,16 all receives radio equipment data), communication tool system 10 advances to operation 122 and 124 so, uses TOF and trilateration to calculate the current location (D of wireless device 12 p).
If operation 120 judge whether fixed, communication tool system 10 advance to operation 126.In operation 126, communication tool system 10 determines whether received by least one vehicle node 14,16 from the data of wireless device 12.If receive this data, communication tool system advances to operation 128, and uses dead reckoning to estimate second final position of wireless device 12, such as current location (D p).
As the initial step of dead reckoning, communication tool system 10 uses gyro data to eliminate the gravity effect being present in acceleration information.In addition, accelerometer 47 and gyroscope 48 with respect to the vehicle 18 working direction (heading) orientation about wireless device 12.As operating 130 illustratedly, in the iteration each time of determining in current location, because orientation is the source of absolute data, this orientation is reinitialized.
Since gravity effect, acceleration information (A x, A yand A z) be devious.Therefore communication tool system uses gyroscope information compensation acceleration information.As described with reference to figure 1 and Fig. 2 above, pitch rate (θ) represents and the angular deflection (x) of longitudinal axis direction.Roll rate ( ) represent and the angular deflection of lateral shaft direction (y), row rate (Ψ) represents and the angular deflection of vertical axis (z) direction partially.Therefore, communication tool system uses corresponding gyro data filtered acceleration data.For example, communication tool system 10 uses pitch angle (θ) to filter longitudinal acceleration (A x).Similarly, transverse acceleration (A y) use angle of roll ( ) filter, and normal acceleration (A z) use row rate (Ψ) partially to filter.Directed wireless device 12 allows data normalization to go back to static vehicle initial position (for example, R point O) and only in the plane (x, y, z) of expecting, analyzes acceleration information.
Normalized data are processed subsequently, by integration to x and y axle acceleration and quadratic integral, to determine the working direction and the displacement (d1 that are for example oriented in, with the wireless device 12 between wireless device 12 and the current location of front position (, initial position), d2, d3).Communication tool system carries out integration by the accekeration to after corresponding filtration, calculates the speed (V of wireless device in each direction (x, y, z) x, V yand V z).For example, longitudinal velocity (V x) by the longitudinal acceleration (A after filtering about time integral x_filt) calculate.Similarly, cross velocity (V y) transverse acceleration (A after filtering by integration y_filt) calculate, and vertical speed (V z) normal acceleration (A after filtering by integration z_filt) calculate.
Communication tool system, by corresponding filtered accekeration is carried out to quadratic integral, calculates the displacement (d of wireless device 12 in each direction (x, y, z) x, d yand d z).For example, longitudinal travel (d x) by the longitudinal acceleration (A after filtering x_filt) carry out quadratic integral about the time and can be calculated.Similarly, cross travel (d y) by the transverse acceleration (A after filtering y_filt) carry out quadratic integral and calculated, and vertical displacement (d z) by the normal acceleration (A after filtering z_filt) carry out quadratic integral and calculated.
Communication tool system uses Kalman filtering, based on shift value (d x, d yand d z) estimate wireless device current distance vector ( ) and working direction.Kalman filtering is a kind of algorithm, and the noisy input traffic of operation of its recurrence, to provide the statistics best guess of state of the system of bottom.Substantially, Kalman filtering is a kind of algorithm, and it uses a series of that observe along with the time and comprise the result of a measurement of change variable (noise), and provides than the more accurate estimated valve to known variables of independent measurement result.Based on the input and output of measuring, Kalman filtering can be counted as estimating the method for " black box " state.According to one or more embodiments, Kalman filtering is used the software code in the microcontroller 60 that is included in dominant base 14 to implement.
Kalman filtering algorithm uses the two step process estimated states that comprise time renewal prediction steps and result of a measurement step of updating.In prediction steps, the estimated valve that Kalman filtering provides current state variable with and uncertain.Result of a measurement step of updating is feedback control.Once Kalman filtering is observed next result of a measurement, use weighted average to upgrade and estimate, wherein, give larger weight to thering is higher deterministic estimation.Calculate weight according to covariance, it comprises measures noise covariance (R) and processes noise covariance (Q).Covariance is the tolerance of probabilistic estimation of prognoses system state.
Measurement noise covariance (R) defines and how much has been used from the information of current result of a measurement.High R value instruction result of a measurement is not very accurate.If R is high, Kalman filtering will be used less weight to current result of a measurement.If R is low, Kalman filtering will be followed result of a measurement more nearly so.The covariance (Q) of processing noise has also greatly affected Kalman filtering.Use high Q value, Kalman filtering is followed the trail of large change more closely.But, to estimate to be allowed to a time step more when " movement ", estimation has become more noises.
In each time step, Kalman filtering process is repeated, and new estimation here and its covariance have been notified and used in the prediction of iteration subsequently.Kalman filtering is a recursive estimator.This means and only have the estimation that is used to calculate current state from estimation state and the current result of a measurement of previous time step.Wireless device 12 can be with working direction, speed and the potential current location (D being placed on displacement in vehicle space with respect to its speed afterwards p).After operation 124, communication tool system returns to operation 120.
Gyroscope 48 is optional equipments of communication tool system 10.The information that gyroscope 48 provides is for being used dead reckoning that the location positioning of more accurate wireless device is provided.But, not very strict application for the requirement of the location positioning of wireless device 12, the optional embodiment of communication tool system 10 does not provide gyroscope 48.
Fig. 6 shows the self adaptation predictability using based on accelerometer data and estimates, and determines the method 210 of the current location of wireless device without any gyro data.Except determining the current location (D of wireless device p), the method 110 that the method 210 of Fig. 6 is described similar in appearance to Fig. 5.
In operation 212, communication tool system 10 determines whether the communication between wireless device and vehicle node 14,16 is established.Repeat 212 until communication be established.In operation 214, each node 14,16 receives from wireless device 12 data that comprise acceleration information.Each node 14,16 produces the message of eat dishes without rice or wine transmission time and the acceleration information of instruction wireless signal 58 subsequently.In operation 216, dominant base 14 determines that all nodes that whether are included himself from the data of wireless device 12 receive.If operation 216 judge whether fixed, the communication disruption of the part between instruction wireless device 12 and node 14,16, communication tool system 10 returns to operation 212 afterwards.If the judgement in operation 216 is sure, (all nodes 14,16 have received radio equipment data), communication tool system 10 advances to operation 218 so, and the first final position that uses TOF and trilateration to calculate wireless device 12, such as initial position (D i).
In operation 220, communication tool system 10 determines that all nodes that whether are included himself from the data of wireless device 12 receive again.If the judgement in operation 220 is sure (all nodes 14,16 has received radio equipment data), communication tool system 10 advances to operation 222 and 224 so, uses TOF and trilateration to calculate the current location (D of wireless device 12 p).
If operation 220 judge whether fixed, communication tool system 10 advance to operation 226.In operation 226, communication tool system 10 determines from the data of wireless device 12 whether received by least one vehicle node 14,16, and former definite initial position (D i) and former definite present position (D pp) whether available.If the judgement in operation 226 is sure, communication tool system advances to operation 228 so, and uses Kalman filtering and self adaptation Analysis on Predictability, the second final position of prediction wireless device 12.
Operation 228, communication tool system 10 based on along with time lapse, initial position (D i) and previous current location (D pp) between difference, calculate the speed of wireless device 12.Communication tool system then relatively the distance vector relevant with each position ( ) and ( ), to estimate the working direction of wireless device 12.Communication tool system then comes weighting speed, working direction together with acceleration information by Kalman filtering, to determine that wireless device is at each direction (d x, d yand d z) displacement.
Communication tool system 10 uses self adaptation predictability to estimate subsequently, is correct possibility to analyze displacement based on accelerometer data.This information can be used to displacement data filtration, skew, refuse or ignore.For example, if Kalman filter instruction wireless device 12 has moved, but accelerometer indicates it not mobile, and self adaptation predictability process can be partial to system less movement or not mobile so.
Wireless device 12 can be placed on the second final position in vehicle space subsequently, such as with working direction, speed with respect to the current location (D of the potential displacement of its speed p).After operation 224, communication tool system returns to operation 220.
And, if any time during method 210, acceleration information value (A x, A yand A z) at least one null time be longer than threshold time section (for example, 10 seconds), communication tool system determines that wireless device 12 has stopped so, and returns to operation 212 and need not determine current location.
